Hopefully this LTQ is in an easier to document format than the last one.

I'll be blasting through the normal mode of this LTQ, but obviously limited to how fast I can type. If you're blasting all the way through to the Elite Mode, a list of Elite prizes and Elite-only jobs would be much appreciated, but otherwise I will probably lean on syndicate mates for them. I'll post the jobs, XP, and energy per job on the first go, and I will do the energy totals etc when I finish the normal mode.


NORMAL MODE TOTALS:
45,214 energy
13,583 xp + 4,225 reward XP = 17,808 xp total
5,719 atk / 5,452 def raw stats


ELITE MODE TOTALS:
98,576 energy
29,812 xp + (?) reward XP
16,688 atk / 14,441 def raw stats


KEY: 5/180e/101xp = a job takes 5 hits, with each hit costing 180 energy and earning 101xp per hit.

In MW, someone did that and started to complain about the units not having boosts and got himself banned. He is unbanned now, but quit the game because of how Gree treated him for doing the walkthroughs. I really miss him. His Funzio name is Devin.

Personally I think finishing a goal and get rewarded with minimal cash + xp is just a punch in the nuts for everyone.

I cannot understand why Gree continues to see this as an actual "reward"

Once again thanks BigMoney for doing this. I thought I was crazy thinking "didn't I prehit this map?" but obviously gree did something about it. I also did not get a splash screen for a prize for some reason.

I agree. It's hard to figure out what a good cash prize should be because of how different our IPHs are. However, I thought gree nailed it woth the RPs in the previous ltq. Why did they go back to this? Plus, what's with the random number of RPs they give you? 464?

Go to preview your message and look for a little paperclip icon.

Alternatively, you can upload them from your computer to a site like imgur.com, which is what I prefer to do. A syndicate sent me this job though, but I haven't seen how high resolution it is yet, so more screenshots can't hurt.

I've summed the totals from the normal mode, and this LTQ seems significantly worse than the normal mode of Soviet Shuffle:

This LTQ:
45,214 energy
17,808 xp
5719 atk / 5452 def raw stats


Soviet Shuffle:
28,382 energy
10,465 xp
6793 atk / 6907 def raw stats



If anyone has the screenshot or results for Normal mode #21, I could post the pictures of the items for Normal Mode.

Edit: just noticed the XP pays out in multiples of 13, which makes it easier to both sum and fill in the blanks for the levels I missed.

Just FYI the cash payout for Round 2 is $3,990, the listing in the first post currently shows $3,390.
I'm sure nobody decided to pass on the LTQ over it.

Many thanks for compiling this info.

Thanks, I type like a madman when I first go through the LTQ, so I'm prone to make typos. I might have made a mistake in typing the item stats somewhere too, but at least my screenshots don't lie.

Looks like the only people who should be doing this LTQ are those who intend to finish it all the way through Elite Mode.

Those who usually just complete Normal Mode and/or whatever bit of Elite Mode they can within the time limit without gold, you're better off giving this LTQ a miss.

To be fair, it was quite cheap to run through normal mode as most of the jobs were prehit (with the exception of my West Side jobs, as all the ones related to the LTQ were reset-- I could maybe understand missing 1 job, even though I've check my maps and refilled all my prehits after every LTQ, but every single one of the West Side ones were reset). I spent ~140 gold, and I started with only a little over 1k energy (was prehitting Packer Heights, thankfully, and had no idea when the LTQ would start) and leveled up once. Thus someone with full prehits could easily finish this in a day or two for free.

Also, I believe the LTQ items are more geared for high stat players. I'm starting to feel like an elitist thanks to stat inflation, where all the booby prizes nowadays (e.g. in the current case event, most of the scratcher prizes, etc) are completely worthless to me, but I was quite content with the LTQ items I was receiving-- there are fewer of them, but they are high stat items (e.g. halfway through Normal you get a 510 attack explosive, and I'm pretty sure almost everyone could use a 500+ attack explosive-- whereas there are probably quite a few high stat players who found the beginning of Soviet Shuffle useless). Eg. if a player's weakest gun was 90 atk, and an LTQ awarded 10 guns with 100 atk, the player would only get a stat boost of 10 * (100 - 90) = +100 atk. Whereas a weaker player whose weakest gun is 10 atk gets a boost of 10 * (100 - 10) = +900 atk. And vice versa, the big items help the stronger players more.

I'm rambling at this point, but my point is that these LTQ prizes will survive stat inflation for longer. That has to be worth something too.

I notice 2 in a row without a loot item (16 & 17). Seems strange and to protect my level makes it sensible to stop at 15.

Great to have this info Big Money.

The break-even point for me is Item 7 Final Offer. The XP/Atk ratio at Final Offer is 1.6 with a cumulative Atk of 730 with XP of only 505.

Won't level up in this one...

You can cut the almost.

As a reference point, I'm relatively strong in explosives, and I still use 125-stat explosives.

They used Empire University, which unlocks at L35. So my guess is that is the minimum.

Why have they advised you to stop mate

07-30-2013, 05:32 AM
Hiya STIG - it's because I'm still below L100...........dunno how long you've been playing but preserving your level as low as possible whilst stiil improving is the key to success (how strong you will be compared to your match-ups). It so happens that this LTQ has a relatively poor stats uplift for the XP you will have to incur. Put simply, I'd be better waiting for a different event to sacrifice my XP on........one which will give me a better stats uplift for the 'XP cost'

There is a tipping point later in your career when your Level (read youth!) has gone and levelling-up becomes less crucial. Once into the high 100s it is virtually an irrelevance!

Excellent work by BigMoney and many others who contributed! I have been putting together tables to see the running totals for each level to show the A/D for rewards, Energy required, and total XP gained. I thought this would be of use for those that want to see how far they can get based on energy or if they are watching their XP gain.

Example:

View the LARGER version here (http://thereapercc.wix.com/risingphoenixcc#!monument-park/cqed), along with other data compiled for Monument Park based on data from these forum threads. Full credit to those that have worked to supply us the LTQ and event reward data! Thank you guys!

I'll keep these as updated as I can keep up with all these events, battles, and LTQs that are being thrown at us these days...

Sum up the energy totals of the levels you have left to do (e.g. 60,000 energy), divide it by 1000 (60,000 enertgy / 1,000 energy per refill = 60 refills) and multiply that result by 20 (60 refills * 20 gold per refill = 1200 gold).

Still working on getting the Elite jobs. Any help would be appreciated.

Wow I never thought about doing that.. but it seems kind of pointless since you're basically just running up your xp for no good reason. I try to only gain xp when I can receive a item to higher my stats, otherwise you end up being a high level with sub par stats. Though, I can agree prehitting is a good idea sometimes. And thanks to BigMoney, I can plan these events out better ;)

You're not "running up your xp for no good reason." If you plan on doing an LTQ, you are going to receive the XP associated with the LTQ one way or another, and it hardly makes much of a difference if you do 6/7 hits of a job in June and the 7th in July or if you do all 7 in July during the LTQ, you're going to get that XP one way or another. What you're really doing is saving energy/gold by paying most of your XP up front. I would gladly trade XP for gold, which is how I look at it.

However, if you don't think LTQs are worth doing, you probably shouldn't be prehitting anything. Prehits are for people who plan to do LTQs one way or another.

Long time lurker, first time poster. Quick question:

The recommendation not to continue this LTQ is directed toward players below level 200. The xp to stat boost ratio is much lower than past LTQs, so campers beware. But, no need for 200 and up to sit out, correct?

Thank you. Really enjoying this forum. Amazing that so many play a mobile game at the level (and cost) that you do.

In terms of whether or not it's good buy, I just regard LTQs as fancy ways to buy gold items. Like, if you're on Elite 30 (14.5k energy), would you be willing to spend ~300 gold for that 5590/3301 gun? I most certainly would. I'm actually currently on Elite 26, and I think I figured with my prehits, I need to spend ~700 more gold to get that final gun. That still sounds like a good deal to me, and I don't mind spending 700+ gold for stats. Other people are less willing to spend gold, and might not be willing to do so regardless of whether or not it's a relatively "good deal."

As for XP, you're on level 164. Do you really intend to camp at your level? Do you think there are going to be better stat/XP events coming your way? Do you think lower level players who do the LTQ will begin to pass you in stats if they participate in the LTQ?

IMO, no point in worrying about XP past level 100+ if you have relatively good stats. I still have relatively good stats for my level, there are just a higher proportion of other gold spenders at higher levels too.

Your stats are decent but depending on what level of competition you're competing in the wars, you could use a boost. If its worth the gold to you, I think it's worth the XP for the stat gain to finish up.
